The largest grouping of non-government aged care providers urges National Cabinet to extend the mandatory vaccination of the aged care workforce to include workers providing home-based aged care and support services or risk leaving a COVID-19 blind spot open.
Catholic Health Australia, which represents not for profit residential and home-based aged care service providers, urges National Cabinet to close the loophole, noting that this has taken on increased urgency with the spread of the more infectious Delta variant.
CHA has confirmed that the mandate announced by the National Cabinet on Monday does not cover the around 150,000 workers who go into the community to care for around one million older Australians in their own homes. It only applies to workers in residential aged care homes.
Catholic sector warns govt failure to accept key Royal Commission recommendation will put aged care homes under greater pressure
